Hey people - ill let you do the deciding.......

Here are my mods (yes this is a repost, but different subject altogether)....please keep this thread mods:)

R33 gtr rb26dett motor in r33 gtr - Stock internals (as far as im aware)

R34 N1 turbos

Bosch 044 Fuel Pump

Nismo 550cc injectors

3" Exhaust into Aftermarket Dump Pipes

Arc Induction Panel and Arc Box

Stock Intercooler

Stock Headgasket

Apexi Powerfc and Hand Controller

I advised a very highly recommended tuner of my car and mods etc....and said i want a very safe reliable tune, and wanted to know how much power i could make reliably.....

There answer - a safe/reliable 350kw at the wheels, now i was thinking more around the 300kw at the wheels safe power goal....this extra 50kw at the wheels has made me hesitant to go there now, as i think its a bit much on a stock motor?

What do you guys think of this? go to another tuner???

From my readings and with my mods on a stock motor, i was told ~300-320 is a very acheivable figure safely...with stock internals...

Thanks in advice...

His dyno may be "happy" and read high. Its only a figure, see how it drives.

The seat of the pants is the best dyno, spend the money if it pulls harder than it was money well spent :)

Mate we have been over this time and time again.

300rwkw stock internals - is OK, plenty doing it.

350rwkw stock internals - is borrowed time generally.

I dont see how this is any different to the half a dozen other threads

I think i'll keep at 300rwkw, and get use to the power, than go for more after in the future when i have more $$$, and a built motor....

My goal is response, which is key for me, will 300rwkw be plenty enough for a Street Gtr, thats close to 500hp is it not?

    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
    • Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
